Huge realization

[keiw1]

It makes me sad but it also makes me feel loved at the same time.

None here killed Jesus. They will however raise up against his at the end of the tribulation, that triggers Armageddon.

99% minimum live in darkness today. At Rev 16, with 3 inspired expressions satan misleads EVERY kingdom( govt, armies, supporters) to stand in opposition to Jesus= 99% minimum on earth. Stand in opposition by raising up against his true followers at the end of the tribulation-Rev 19:11-18-Daniel 2:44) is the result of them raising against Jesus true followers. They will be mislead into worshipping( giving support) to the image of the beast-How? Because it will look good to the mortal heart. Because satan rules this world like this-2Cor 11:12-15)--Not only mislead then but are now as well.

Really, I was wondering from where this percentage comes from ?
One thing I learned from an early age is that my imagination can't always be trusted....

Luke 17:26--Jesus compares these last days to Noahs day( 99.9% mislead)-today 99% minimum.

No percentage mentioned in Luke, I presume imagination has to be used rather than fact.

I've wondered before why Jesus was so confrontational. Instead of live and let live. Saying various bad things about the Jewish leaders, going into their temple and overturning the tables where they were trying to sell stuff, riding into town on a donkey, which is what kings did. He made a lot of people mad. He could have taken his followers up a mountain in the boonies somewhere and led a quiet life.

If you take the number of people who did not survive the flood and divide that by the number people that were living then..... you will get a number almost identical to what kiew1 wrote about. To make it easier, rounder the number to the nearest 1/10th

Probably appears in their approved Bible ? My Bible does not have such specific percentages…….:)

I do not think that the mission ended in failure. He came here knowing how it was going to go and what was expected of him and at any point he could turn from the course of the hard task needed to be done and did not.

We fight against our own mistakes and powers that be. Had we make no mistakes yes the powers that be would not to be able to sway people to various deeds but we are flawed , we make mistakes. Some times a honeyed word is all is needed to sway someone and others take effort to sway not know what can be done to silence them but no one today bares that mark.

In my case it is a mix of faith and telling things to totter off though I do have my weak moments or days....lol

My big realisation with christianity is that it doesn't have to be literal. Discovering Bishop Spong helped me leave behind fundamentalism & have a more accepting view of the world & embracing different philosophies.
